Events in 2018
CITiZAN archaeologists are holding events all around England. Come see when we'll next be in your area and join us!
- The CITiZAN south west team will be running two guided walks of the WWII remains at Studland Beach in Dorset on Wednesday 21st March. We will be exploring the anti tank defences, walking through Fort Henry and taking a look at a type 25 pill box on the beach, we will also be joined by Nick Reed who will tell us about the remains of 7 Valentine tanks which now lie on the sea bed in the bay.
- CITiZAN have been invited to talk at the opening of artist Cliff Crawford's exhibition Waveworn. Through repeated series of photographs Cliff's work deals with coastal change and he'll also be giving a talk about his work on the too. We're delighted to have this opportunity share a platform with him. Waveworn runs from Saturday March 3 - Friday March 23; the Gallery is open Thurs - Sun 12 noon–5pm
- Come and join the CITiZAN team as we investigate the remains of the South Shields Seaplane Station. The Royal Naval Air Service operated the site for experimental craft, stopovers and patrolling the north-east coast. We plan to explore the area the station once sat upon, recording and documenting as we go, and train attendees in basic archaeological recording and the use of our free app.
- For the third year running CITiZAN have worked with University of Brighton second year BA Art students on their faculty option Land and Sea in which they reflect on the coastal landscapes of Sussex. This exhibition presents their work. The opening of the exhibition is on Thursday 22 February 6pm and you are welcome to join us! The exhibition runs until Sunday 18 March 2018.
- Come and join the CITiZAN team as we investigate the remains of the Crosby Battery, which once protected the northern approaches to Liverpool. We plan to explore the area the battery once sat upon, recording and documenting as we go, and train attendees in basic archaeological recording and the use of our free app.
